A Bitter Pill For s. Pillmaker's
Kin.

The will of Holloway, the great
quack medicine millionaire, has just
been probated. Notwithstanding the
contest made by two aged sisters. whom
he left penniless. He gave nearly all
his estate-less the amount which
erected what is likely TO be a useless
college-to a stranger to his blood.
and did not name his aged sisters.
The general feeling in court was that
he humbugged the world by his al.
legged philanthropy in life, and that his
unkindness to his kin was the bitterest
of all the pills he manufactured

To Her.

Thy trembling arm pressed
Fondly: our thoughts confessed
Love conquest tender.
God filed the vastsweet night;
God filed our hearts, the sight
OF stars made splendor.
Even as we walked and dreamed,
'Twixted earth aud heaven ii seemed
Our souls were speaking.
The stars looked on thy face;
Thine eyes through violet space
The stars were seeking
And from the astral height
Feeling the sweet, soft light
Thrill to thy soul,
Thou saidst: so God OF Bliss!
Lord God Of the blue abyss,
Thou madest the whole.~
And the stars were whispering low
To the God OF space 1--WE know,
Lord God of Eternityl
Dear God, all Love is Thine;--
Even by loves light we shine;
Thou mad'st beauty"

There has lately been some question
as to who is the senior newspaper man,
editor or printer in Michigan, and it
seems to be at last conceded that the
honor rests with Mr.. Don G.. Henderson
of 1.-The Allegan Journal and Tribune,
who began his labors January %, 1913,
on the old "Allegan Record He has
since that time been connected with
various newspapers in New York and
Jersey City. In 1856 he founded his
present paper, and with the exception
of a short time in 1919 has been at the
head of It ever since.

RICH BITUMEN geo.
A Flaming Jet OF Gas From a Hot
sulphur springs.


sulphur springs.
A letter from San Luis. Obispo, Cal. q,
to The San Francisco Chronicle says:
The remarkable recent discoveries are
the result of an experimental boring
for oil. The abundance of asphaltum
in this country has long been mat
ter of notoriety. and its mining and
shipping to San Francisco has for many
years constituted IA large and profitable
business, some 2, 800 tons being the an
nual product.
The existence of asphatum intimated
the existence of petroleum. In the val
ley of San Luis creek. about two miles
from its entrance into the Bay of San
Luis Obispo. DR.. G.. X. Nichols, the
owner of the land, observed some rock
appearing to contain asphaltum or oil,
and proposed boring on the spot
Taking as associates in the enterprise
Judge Fred Adams, a capitalist, and
ALI Walker, practical operator. the
project of boring was undertaken about
one year ogo.
At about six hundred feet in depth
the artesan anger entered body of
rock from which flowed large volume
of sulphur water accompanied by an
inflammable gas. The water has a
temper ature of 90 degrees and flows
about thirty thousand barrels day.
The gas. when confined in a jet of four
inches in width and one-siXteenth in
thickness burns with flame two or
three feet high. The quantity of gas
flowing from the well has never been
measured, but it is estimated by some
10 b. more than double that used in
lighting the city of San Luis Obispo.
The boring was continued until a
depth of very near nine hundred feet
was reached, without any change, and
there it rests. This singular well, with
its fountain If hot sulphur water sur
mounted by its waving plume OF flame,
is situated in a very pleasant and ro-
mantle locality in valley threaded by
pretty little stream and amid great
oak and sycamore trees, while between
il and the ocean is a high hill, which
shelters it from the heavy sea breeze.

sense delicious. The resort is of easy
access, as on the opposite side of the
valley, a few hundred yards distant, is
the Pacific Coast railway. and good
wagon roads lead TO San Luis and to
Pismo, either about five or six miles
away.
This is one of the great and singular
developments of the year.

Among all the rich and costly presents
